Greg Horn the father who discipline his two daughters with a cable for doing a twerk video for facebook is arrested thank god ! Ive seen the video and its pretty bad. no matter what a child does they shouldn't be discipline the way these girls were and especially not with a TV cord. i feel for these girls not everyone is perfect but when a mistake is made it should be handle in a decent way. our kids might do things that make us mad but parents have to understand kids are going to make a lot of mistakes and when they hit their teens their gonna make even bigger mistakes but its up to the parents to punish them in a decent way. below are 5 ways to discipline your teen .
1. Establish ground rules. Your teenager must know what you expect from her, so there are no misunderstandings. For example, you can tell her you want her to finish her homework before she can go out with her friends Even if she complains every once in a while, she will respect you for setting limits.
2 .Remain calm. Although it is easy to become angry when your teenager breaks the rules, it will only make him more defensive. Before you talk to your teenager about his behavior, take a few minutes to calm yourself.
3. Talk to your teenager when she misbehaves. Calmly tell her that you do not approve of her behavior. For example, you can say, "I find it very disrespectful that you missed your curfew last night. I want you to know that I will not tolerate that kind of behavior." If this is her first offense, give a warning. However, you must make it clear to her that there will be consequences if she does it again.
4. Decide on an appropriate punishment if he continues to break the rules. Whether it's revoking privileges or requiring him to stay in his room all weekend, make sure the punishment is something he will remember and will associate with his behavior. For example, if he stays out past his curfew, do not allow him to go out with his friends for a week.
5. Stand firm and enforce the punishment. Even if your teen does everything in her power to get out of the punishment, you must not allow her to manipulate you. If you enforce the punishment, your teen will know that you are serious.
